Hi Jolinda,
Thank you for the information about the mold, I will see if I can find a cocktail shaker as I
can then see for myself what it is like. I have thought of buying some stainless steel as you
can use it to fuse flat pieces of glass you are going to slump into a mold. Slumpy’s want a
minimum order of $75 so being in Australia I would have to pay nearly the same for shipment.
I also don’t have much in the way of weights to hold the glass down. I will need to find some
before I make the glass. My kiln is not that big, about 12 x 12 “, take some off for the kiln
shelf & it is probably even smaller. I am thinking to do a course on learning to make your
own kiln. A place in Victoria has a workshop where they supply all parts & teach you how to
make a kiln. Once you have learned how, then you can make a larger one or smaller for jewellery pieces. The kiln costs about $900 odd plus $60 for tuition on how to make it. An electician
puts the electrical things in. A small kiln is much cheaper than the ones available now for
doing pendants. Thanks again Jolinda The big kiln is 400×400
